PLASTER MOCK UP MODEL / MOVIE PROP
Hi Bernie, here are the photos of the Greyhound Silverside. One similar to this one was used in the filming of the movie "War of the Colossal Beast." One picture shows a lobby card from the movie, a video of the movie and a pair of trading cards. I found these show the monster holding the bus up in the air. The bus was full of school kids on a field trip to Griffith observatory. Thanks for the opportunity to show one of my busses, Greyhair.

Very nice silverside. Thanks for sharing it with us! How did you acquire it and can you tell us the approximate dimmensions?
